back in the sixties, when the struggles
between the people Of the north and
those of the south were raging upon the
field of gore and glory, jefferson Davis
was being tossed upon the waves Of sd
versity and blown about by every con-
trsry wind, while millions Of loyal south
erners prayed and worked for him and
his cause. In those trying days lady CT
wealth and refinement lived in Atlanta,
Ca, only short distance from where
the Hill monument now stsuds, which
Mr.. Davis saw unveiled. This lady col

rious kinds, and once when the summer
roses bIoomed and wasted their odor OF
the desert air she gathered them and
made for her honored Chieftsin literal

appeared in print, but such devotion on
the part of southern womanhood to q
cause In which her dear ones s6crlfc3 ed

The meals of Charlemagne consisted
never of more than four courses, and his
fsvorite dishes were eggs and roast meat,
particularly venison, which was served
on long spits by his foresters. Luther
preferred Torgan beer and book to all
other beverages. AS young man
Melaucthon was very fond Of barley
soup, and he would often exchange
diet OF meat for bowl Of barley soup.
Small G 81, vegetables, and all kinds OF
farineceous food he liked, but large fish
End Nest he dIsliked. and he hated all
public meals or drinking bouts. Tor
quato Tasso was very fond Of preserved
fruits and all kinds Of fancy sweets.
Henry ". was often i'll from eating too
many oysters or melons. His faVorite
drink was vim d'Arbois. Peter the Crest

cheese. Charles XII, King OF Sweden,
preferred piece OF bread and butter TO
anything else. Voitaire, like Frederick

GERNANY's CROWN PRINCESS.
Queen Victoria's Eldest Daughters Dislike

Narr Cun

to Her Father in LAWS Minister.
New York Sun.
Princess Victoria hates Bismarck. She
can not forgive him for his opinion he
expressed about her children, his coarse
ness, and his perverseness inEtrying to
ignore her. The Crown Princess does not
mean to retire to quiet corner at Pots
dam or Windsor, and she does not mean
to die before she is something. This
something is to become the Empress.
It is she who inspires the Crown Prince
with courage and energy to overcome
his illness. Prince Bismarck breads
the pride and spite of this woman.
He fears that IS Her Majesty, she
will open the way to principles different
from those on which he founded the en-
pre-. She means to adopt real constitu-
tional principles for governing Germany.
She aims st stopping personal and auto
cratic government. She desires that the
voice of the nation be heard. In short,
she wishes everything which Bismarck
believes would be the ruin of Germany.
Bismarck is convinced that il the
Princess Victoria were to be empress
even for one year only, irreparable dam
age would be done to Germany. This Is
the reason why Bismarck wishes nothing
more fervently than that the life Of the
Emperor should be spared IS long as
possible.
